This is, of course, true.. the problem is, when NSA finds someone offshore
using a U.S. made-proggie shortly after its release, it gives them a
good lead into finding those engaged into underground distro.

It might be a good idea for some kind soul to set up a "mail2ftp"
set up.. this way the existing remailer network can be used.

Well.. getting paid wouldn't be THAT hard.. ask the Mafia.. of course,
anonymous digital cash would be nice.

Ah well.

"Two things fill the mind with ever new and increasing admiration and awe
the more often and steadily we reflect upon them: the starry heavens
above and the moral law within me. I do not seek or conjecture either of
them as if they were veiled obscurities or extravagances beyond the horizon
of my vision; I see them before me and connect them immediately with the
consciousness of my existence." - Immanuel Kant "Critique of
Practical Reason"
